Description

Experience discreet townhouse-style living with all of the conveniences and services of a full-service condominium. This maisonette at 151 East 78th Street encompasses over 4,300sf of living space and a large 720sf private garden. Custom designed by AD100 designer Victoria Hagan this 7-bedroom, 7-bathroom home is in triple mint condition ready for the next owner to move right in.

151 East 78th Street was designed by world-renowned architect Peter Pennoyer and echoes the grandeur and elegance of pre-war architecture. Entry to the apartment is either through a dedicated foyer on the building’s main level or through direct elevator access to the second-floor marble gallery with barrel-vaulted ceilings. A double-wide living room is flanked by a library and formal dining room featuring custom chevron oak floors.

Mahogany floor-to-ceiling windows line the southern exposures, overlooking a row of historic townhouses. Adjacent to the library is an elegant powder room with marble shower, allowing for its use as an additional bedroom suite. Pocket doors lead from the dining room to the eat-in kitchen, with cabinetry by Smallbone of Devises and finished in hand-painted white oak with black walnut interiors.

White quartz countertops are paired with Calacatta marble backsplashes. Appliances include a 36-inch Wolf range with vented hood, a Wolf wall oven, microwave, and warming drawer, two Miele dishwashers, and two Sub-Zero refrigerators. The primary bedroom suite is located on the north wing of the second floor and is entered through a gallery lined with walk-in closets.

The bed chamber is situated facing east over a row of townhouse gardens. The primary bath is finished with hand-laid Sugar White and Woodgrain Light marble slabs with radiant heat flooring, an elegant vanity with maple interiors, a marble-clad cast iron tub, and a separate steam shower. Three further bedrooms complete the floor, each with ensuite bathrooms.

An elegant staircase leads down to the garden level of the maisonette. A den with ensuite bath opens onto the garden. Established trees provide privacy and shade to the outdoor space, which includes a Wolf gas grill and ample space for dining and entertaining. Included with this sale and connected to the maisonette’s first floor entryway and staircase is unit 1A, a self-contained studio apartment with full kitchen and bathroom.

Private storage is also included. 151 East 78th Street is a boutique white-glove condominium completed in 2016. Residences were constructed with state-of-the art mechanicals and environmental systems, including an emergency generator, humidification system, wiring for audio, communications, data ports and the most sophisticated air conditioning and heating system available. The highest level of service is provided by a full-time doorman, porter, and a live-in resident manager.

Amenities include a gym, yoga studio, library, garden, and a bicycle room. Flip Tax equal to 1.5% of gross sales price payable by Buyer.
